Just interested to see how many convertible owners we have in the club, also might make a good point of reference for problems?

heading from the Downend Roundabout, upto the Willy Wicket Roundabout at approx 8am this morning.

Has anyone fitted GTiR Turbs?? If so how do/did they perform? I have told they would be laggy.

Anyone know whether there is a diff between an N/A master cyl and a TT one? just curious as im thinking about putting it on my SX as ive already got the 330mm drilled & grooved big brake upgrade Cheers John

Has any one had a Jap Zed Mot'ed in the last few months and been told they HAVE to have a rear fog light; cos I have just had this. The car was mot'ed at the same garage last year and not a sodding mention of it then. Have the rules changed this year or was the mech just being a tw*t?:rant::rant::rant: I now have a light fitted and should i take it off???? Thanks Marcus

Spotted in the Spinal Injurys car park at Oswestry Hospital. Only saw it as I was leaving there today. Was a dark grey with a small rear plate(my eyes are,nt that good !!):tongue: Marcus

Thinking about some vents for IC exit ducts, but want to know if anyone has successfully blended fibreglass into the poly bumper, without it cracking? They are going to get some proper flex in them as I live in London, and those speed bumps make good ramps :)

I've just noticed both rear sills (just in front of each wheel) are discolouring forming bubbles and rusting...... I guess i need to replace both sides towards the join just before each door. Before i do this i want to find a really good guy in London who i can trust! Anyone reccomend a garage in or near West London??? Cheers guys Alex (07944045178)

I know one of them is for the clock, just trying to work out what the rest are for? They all had something to do with the old stereo...I think. It's a bit of a mess. Not sure what's what. Sorry about the quality, I've lost the lead for my digi-cam, so have to rely on a phone!

is there any way of lowering the temp that the fan kicks in at? i.e. via consult or similar?

collected my car yesterday. while the engine is idling there's a sound exactly like AIV gurgle coming not from the nearside wing but from what sounds like the bottom of the centre of the engine. my AIVs were removed ages ago! she holds boost ok and drives fine, albeit i only run a few psi while im running her in. engine temp is a tad warmer than normal too. any ideas?

my zed has been making a horrible whining noise lately, on closer inspection it turns out that someone has over tightened the air con drive belt, resulting in the bearings going on the idler pulley, also the roller on the air con compressor is noisy when turned. can this roller be replaced or do i have to buy the compressor and roller together, and does anyone know where i can get the parts thanks

Didnt see the reg plate but from what i saw it was a VERY clean n tidy car.. wouldnt have spotted me as ive defected to the 200sx side :rofl:

What is the diference between the fuel injectors for the pre and post 1994/10 cars? The HKS list is for cars 1994/10 to 1998/10, can you not fit them to an earlier car with some modification?

Grey Zed in Mote park Saturday afternoon last 3 letters GDL. confussed my son from a distance he thought it was me turned up to collect him :tongue:

Right my battery I think is fried. But thats not the question. Have the charger connected and was going to fire the car up and take it for a clean. But although the radio wants to comeon I get a clicking comming from the near drivers side, all the electrics are intermittent with the clicking. Not enough power or is a relay fried?

there is a vac pipe going in but not one coming out dose anyone know where it should go to the pipe going in comes from the unit beside the brake master:confused:

where can i get 6 injector seals from or dose anyone have some in need asap

Just arrived inc centre panel :hyper::hyper: well done Luke @ the z centre Always a bloke you can rely on Dave

Time to move on as I just cant keep buying new rear tyres every 1500 miles so have taken a wedge of cash and PX on a SWB NA with only 10k miles on the clock:eek::shock:

any one done this if possible?

My zed tt has felt 'loose' and floaty for a while now, i put new upper arms on, new tension rod bushes, shocks,arms,bushes,balljoints(- what a toss job that is!) At each stage it felt better,but still loose. I finally put new whiteline adjustable anti roll bar links on the back.Strewth. Bloody thing is transformed :) doesn't hop,skip,stays flat on roundabouts, WHY didn't i do this first. Brilliant :hyper: £25? 20 minutes :wack: Just do it, if you are running about on 15 year old links!

Just a little update for those of you that know Eliza and for anyone else who gives a gnats ass!! ;) Eliza is now officially 'Off The Road' for the foreseeable future! Basically the Tax is out tonight and insurance is out next week, so I've bought a small run-about (a Rover 220SDi Turbo) which I'll be using as my daily from now on, with a view to putting Eliza back on the road sometime in the future. It's not just running costs that are against her at the moment, she still has all of the following problems...... No turbo boost! Leaking rear crank seal Buggered O2 sensor Possible shot HICAS arms + a few other niggly little things Along with th…
